I started promoting hostgator in april.
Now I was wondering if anyone has a lot of experience with the hostgator affliate program, what's the average approval rate? As for me I'm currently at around 40-50% it seems, which seems a bit low to be honest.
Also I was wondering if anyone has already been paid out for the sales of April since it was supposed to be this week and when I contacted support they were like "errr it takes 3 months" "yes I waited 3 months, my first sales were in April" "errr.. here is the link to the FAQ" "Yes I read it, it said the first week of july I should be paid then.." "errr...." and then I los my patience.
Would it be better to try to sign up through CJ?

Thanks, yes I'm currently for in the $ 125 section, so I will stick with that. Still I think that the amount of rejected ones is quite high, but might be from people who only pay per month.
So did anyone get their payout for April yet?

I use their in-house program. I had 2 signups a few months ago and was paid on time. Just ride their ass about it. They will send payment. Also,make sure your signups are verified or approved on your stats page.

I have had a few legitimate sales through their in-house program I wasn't paid for, even after contacting their affiliate manager several times. But through CJ, I've been paid for most of my sales.
Plus, the CJ program has a period of 45 days while the in-house one has a period of 60 days.
